Land OwnerCity of San Diego
Fun trail with 2 sections. The upper section is a nice downhill with some berms, drops, and jumps. the lower section is slightly downhill with a few more jumps and berms. You can ride the lower section a few times by taking a connecting trail that takes you back where the upper and lower parts connect.
The city parks/rangers call the trail "Suycott Valley Alternate Trail," as indicated by the trail head sign. But the name "E-Ticket" is better known by the mountain bike community and matches Strava.
Access Info
Look for the sign "Suycott Alternate Trail”.
Adaptive Bike Info
aMTB Blue Rating: Intermediate features and steeper terrain.
Dilemma: Steep, loose, ledgy climb
